Yes. You can assign them to any channel, input or output on the console. I have mine set up as STL&R and MIX11 (which is my subwoofer). Could be very interesting to have them set up as DCA group masters now that they will allow you to assign output channels to DCAs.

FWIW, my GLD112 with AR2412 and Dante was about $10K, not 15K. Granted this is when A&H was offering free AR2412s last December. Although the RND EQ and compressor emulations and the Dugan auto mix are all great software, I don't think they will appeal to the entire target market, which places the price a tad high in my estimate.

It will be interesting to see if Yamaha does anything in the 01V/X32 space, or if they abandon that market. I'm with JR, it's extremely difficult to run both value and luxury brands. Companies end up leaving features out of the value brand to distinguish the luxury brand, while their value competitors crank out new features without worrying about canabalizing sales from the high end products.

I was adding in a couple AR84s, but your point is taken- I haven't priced them recently. The GLD system is really a good value.

It is indeed.

Where this competes is in the world of larger productions, networked installs and small OBs where you need a cost effective and sonically high quality console that can form part of a larger system. At that point you are looking at products which have some bigger networking functionality built in, like the Digico and Midas ranges. Then its more interesting.

Thanks, so a QL1 should be able to have 18 mic's/inputs etc on one layer of faders, if so i may get one.

I think we're getting them from R&R, which is a little heavier-duty than we really need. No doghouse. For this sort of thing we tend to like MT Cases, who will make them a little less tour-proof and therefore more weekend rental customer friendly.
